Old Molly always wore a blanket and a tall hat with a silver band around it. She usually wore a loose sacque and silver brooch beneath the blanket; always moccasins and leggings. At one time she had a long camelot [?] cloak lined with green baize - When she had her picture taken she had a skirt, presumably long, and a loose, sacque of plaided goods hanging about to the knee, and pinned with a row of small [four struck through] two brooches in front and a tall hat with a silver band.
In figure she was rather stout and short; not fat so much as thickset and chunky. She always went bent and lame and used a cane. She had a very sharp, keen eye, and a peculiar way of blackening like a thundercloud when displeased. Her face would change its color entirely and her eyes look thunder and lightning. Her temper was not the best unless things went right
She would swear on occasions fluently; "What debble?" was her favorite inquiry. "What debble his name?"
